Oh in no way am I saying that Google is a good guy here. I’m sure that if it were up to them, they would keep the current status quo.
They are only doing this due to the pressure they’re getting for their poor track record of supporting their devices. But it is still a step in the direction nonetheless.
Agreed. This and Googles announcement last month of supporting new chromebooks for 10 years is a step in the right direction.
That’s a potential solution but the problem is that IT departments in schools are replacing them when they reach EOL in regards to security patches (since testing software isn’t supported). While there may be people interested, I can’t see many wanting to buy chromebooks that won’t be getting security patches and are sluggish.
The amount of Chromebooks that go to waste in K-12 schools is insane. So it is nice to see Google taking action on this, especially since its largest market are schools.
It won’t just be electric cars, it’ll be all new model cars from manufacturing companies. At least until ICE is phased out.
I just kept thinking of Abode Security
It’ll sell it’s fair share but the delayed launch is going to really hurt it it’s potential sales numbers. In the span of their initial release date and ‘24, ev pickups from Ford, Rivian, and GM have released.
They could have been one of the first and taken the hype
RSS feeds through Reeder on iOS. Get news from outlets like Ars Technica, The Verge, MIT Tech Review, NYT, among others.
Battlefield 4. Was there from the buggy as shit release on the PS4 back in 2013. A little over 600 hours. Some of my best gaming memories.
Read his quotes and it sounds like he thinks that they can continue with the closed source path, despite of the memo (which I believed had plenty of important points).
You think we’ll see them make a fully open source model?
On what grounds exactly? Their incompetence is what gave Meta the opening to launch a competitor to begin with.
Yes, it has been fun adding and contributing to the small and bigger communities on here alike. Not to mention that there have been more constructive conversations as well.
I differ with your view in that I’m looking forward to having more people join and seeing these communities grow. As of now, the platform is still pretty niche (which is nice) but the fediverse can be built in a flexible way to give users the power in what they want to see and block.
Twetbot (which I used personally and loved), Tweetdeck, and Twitterrific to name a few. They have been around for a while (some over a decade).
Seriously. Imagine the developers who sunk all of their time, effort, and money to make great and beloved 3rd party apps for these platforms to see it completely screwed over in the span of mere months by people who do not understand what made these platforms unique and successful.
With generative AI and it’s harmful impacts being the hot topic right now, I can see how the EU regulations are garnering so much attention and support right now. Even if they do pass the regulations, it’s still going to be important that other countries (US, Canada, Japan, South Korea, etc) get on board or I can easily see the EU being left behind in this space. Like you said, some sort of protections by the EU are going to be important.
With that said, I just don’t see how these regulations remain long term if there isn’t buy in from other countries.
Havnt checked so honestly wouldn’t know. Now that I think of it, it’s kind of crazy that Kbin replaced it so easily for me and I am on it far less (which is a good thing tbh).
It’s also testament to how good the experience here has been so far. And how crap reddits response as been.
School districts are quick to buy Chromebooks and go “1:1”, but cheap out on IT and cybersecurity.
